Servers

[Steely Jim]

A couple weekends back, I spent most of my time loitering around the game observing how people were using different servers. I got some funny reactions from players trying to get me to go sailing, when I told them I was just observing server usage patterns.

The servers at the beginning of the alphabet, and those at the end to tend to fill up first; however, when the game experiences truly peak periods of use, the tendency seems to be for most people to just go with a random server.

It doesn't seem to be entirely a case of just looking for an "Ideal" or a "Quiet" server, as I often found servers that were listed as ideal but were actually full of people training in out of the way places.

I did find several servers that I suspected were being used by large guilds. They aren't always listed as ideal, but Savica, Guines, Navago, Patros, and Tortos all seem to have a lot of general activity. There are a few other that seem to show up regularly as active, such as Bequermo, Battama, Vachira, Navica and Pataba.

I do sort of like the quiet servers also. My usual server is Caicumal, but if that seems laggy or ends up going "Ideal," then I tend to go to Desereau, Guyago, Galaacre, or Eustabia.
